Top 10 Fitness Gifts for 2020
It is the time of the year again! We get together and gift our loved ones a little something to share a little happiness with one another. If you happen to know someone who is into fitness, running or weight lifting then we have just the right fitness gift ideas for you at all price-points.
Now, I am in no way affiliated with any of these companies so please don’t assume I’m choosing these items for profit. When I was making this list, I thought about all the times my clients or myself have come across an issue on our fitness journeys and these tools, or the idea of these tools, were the solution.
Under Armor Face Mask $ 30
So, COVID is a thing. It’s not going anywhere any time soon and neither are the mask mandates at the gyms. Instead of complaining and struggling to breath through the thick fabric of the mask you got from Target, opt for a breathable material like the one by Under Armor. It's got the airflow you need, a cool feel, and the best fit for running or training.
Theragun $ 289.70
I know, I know. This one has a hefty price tag, but the benefits, in my opinion, definitely warrant the cost. Muscle soreness and stiffness are a regular part of the fitness world and this tool utilizes percussion therapy to decreases that muscle soreness & stiffness, allows for faster warmup & recovery, increases blood flow, decreases lactic acid, improves range of motion, hydrates tissue and improves stretching ability. They even have a Mini option for $199.
Facegym - Charcoal Detox Stick $49
I don’t know about y’all, but my maskne is OUT OF CONTROL. This little gem works WHILE you work out to exfoliate and detoxify your skin while tea tree oil and salic acid help fight off breakouts. That’s a win-win in my book.
Invisibobble $10
The perfect stocking stuffer, these elastic hair rings won't dent or crease hair and don't get soaked with sweat.
Bose Wireless Headphones $59.95
Headphones make or break your workout. If your music is just right you find yourself full of energy and pushing harder. In my experience, BOSE has offered the best sound quality and this particular set is connected. I’m not so good with keeping the truly wireless earbuds in my ears, so these are perfect for me and all the plyometric movements I do.
Kettlebell $31.99
One of the most versatile pieces of exercise equipment, a kettlebell is one of the best fitness purchases you can make. There’s no need to get a specific brand, iron is iron.
4mm B Mat Everyday Yoga Mat $84
I know you can grab a mat for like $5 at your corner store, but after only a few uses, it’ll end up flaking and ripped. Save yourself some hassle and money and invest in a quality yoga mat. More and more often, people are bringing their own mats to the gym in order to keep germ spreading to a minimum. The B Mat Everyday Yoga Mat is grippy, durable, and sustainable, it’s made from a high-tech material originally created for carpet pads.
TRX Home System $199
One of my favorite purchases ever. The TRX suspension training system is portable, providing full-body workouts at home, while you travel or your favorite outdoor locations. Fast set up for fun and effective workouts anytime, anywhere. Pair this with your Kettlebell for one hell of a workout!
Hydroflask $22.46
Unleash your inner VSCO girl and get yourself a Hydroflask, or any insulated water bottle for that matter. Staying hydrated is ESSENTIAL to any fitness endeavor. Drinking cold water during exercise can help keep your body from overheating and make your workout session more successful.
Gaiam Treat Your Feet Kit $34.99
I can not tell you how many Active Duty clients come in with foot problems. Be proactive and incorporate a foot health routine with rollers/bands/balls/messengers like the ones in this kit. If there are issues in your feet, it will travel up the kinetic chain affecting your knees, hips, back, neck. Nip this problem in the bud before it’s too late.
